I am this kind of a tree
"I am this kind of a tree" is a story about a person. And the meaning of the words "I am this kind of a tree" is not in individuality. This is too little for him. The main thing is that each person is special. Everyone is special and different. Like a tree. "Different kind of a tree" we hear in the song. So a person with all the joys, experiences, passions and difficulties becomes unique. The authors of the film tried to reveal a person through choreography. Show its flexibility, its inconveniences. And, most importantly, can it change. Like a tree changes: from an ugly thing, something luxurious emerges. And vice versa, from tall, slender trees we see only packs of pencils. Although the world needs both. It would be great if everyone was not afraid to tell themselves that they are special. Maybe you are a different person, but you are such a person.

Jegors Gordejevs, director, dancer, and engineer, was born in Riga, Latvia, USSR. In 2000, Jegors began breakdancing. His dance and life experiences inspired him to create short films and music videos in which dance elements and tricks convey feelings, emotions, and create a story. They can be based on a favorite song, poetry, or simply music. What Jegors values most about cinema is the opportunity for viewers to identify with the film's characters. This can provide a real lesson in how to act in life or, conversely, to avoid certain actions.
"If a film can't “shake” you, then it should evoke associations!"
